Jeremy Kyle spent his career shouting at the vulnerable on national television during the darkest times in their lives. Seems a tad unfair that they cancel now without doing a special episode where he at least gets booed a bit for likely contributing to the death of a guest.

I am without remorse in owning up to being a terrible snob and there has always been one and only one show strictly banned from my TV – good riddance to Jeremy Kyle’s freak show of shit flinging and all the morbid gawping at degradation it fostered.

Now Jeremy Kyle has gone, can we fuck off every other television format designed to exploit troubled people, mock the poor, with no regard for the consequences of exposing the vulnerable to media scrutiny? Contemptible, derogatory, classist, dangerous, divisive, lazy crap.

Can I suggest an alternative to Jeremy Kyle. Instead of an ex public school boy shouting at dysfunctional poor people with addictions and mental health problems. Why dont I do one shouting at dysfunctional rich folk with the same problems starting with Rees Mogg & Boris Johnson
